Walter Hafner

Walter originally came to Buena Vista as a raft guide and returned after completing physical therapy school at CU. Walter has always been passionate about sports and fitness, enjoying soccer, basketball, and volleyball over the years. In 2016, frustrated with lack of progress with his fitness he found CrossFit and has never looked back.  

As a CrossFit athlete, Walter has enjoyed the varied challenges and skills, and the supportive and competitive community. As a physical therapist and gym owner, Walter is excited to help people battle the effects of aging to allow them to continue living an active, fulfilling life.

Outside of the gym, Walter enjoys rock climbing, river surfing, running, and hunting with friends and family.
